What the hell?

Tiring schedule

Wow, I've been super lax in my blogging lately, mainly because I'm now working two jobs. So that doesn't leave much time for pondering the mysteries of life – or giving short, crappy updates about how things are going in the snowy Upper Midwest. 

On Thanksgiving, I had to work at my real job from 3:30 to 1 a.m., then I had to be up and ready for Black Friday at 8 a.m. (Younkers actually opened at 4, but I wasn't scheduled to be in until 8, so that's lucky, I guess). From 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., I confronted the sheer insanity of hordes of crazed shoppers scavenging for bargains (and getting very upset when we didn't have what they were seeking). Then I went to the real job from 3:30 to about 1 a.m. once again. 

That means that even though my schedule at the paper recently changed so I'm now a normal person who has actual weekends off, the only thing I'll probably be doing tonight (one of my first work-free Saturday nights in a very long time) is take a nap. How lame is that? Oh well, there's always next weekend – assuming I'm not too tired to do anything again.
